MPXH6300A6U

Pressure Sensors Transducers Overview

The MPXH6300A6U is a temperature-compensated piezoresistive absolute pressure sensor manufactured by STMicroelectronics (originally NXP). It features an analog voltage output ranging from 0.3 V to 4.9 V, powered by a supply voltage of 4.74 V to 5.46 V. The device measures absolute pressures between 2.9 PSI and 44.09 PSI (20 kPa to 304 kPa) with an accuracy of ±1.5%. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is housed in an 8-SSOP package.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as the component is produced by STMicroelectronics despite historical NXP branding in some catalogs. Confirm the specific suffix '6U' corresponds to the SSOP-8 package variant. Ensure that the required absolute pressure range of 20 kPa to 304 kPa aligns with the system design requirements before procurement.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Selection Notes

Select this component when a temperature-compensated absolute pressure sensor with an analog voltage output is required. The 8-SSOP surface-mount package facilitates automated assembly. Consider the ±1.5% accuracy specification and the wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C for suitability in demanding environments.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Part Context

This part belongs to the MPXH6300A series of piezoresistive pressure sensors. These devices are characterized by their integrated signal conditioning and temperature compensation, which simplifies system design. The series offers various pressure ranges and package options to accommodate different application constraints.

Pressure Sensors Transducers Replacement Considerations

MPXH6250A6U: Offers a similar package and functionality but with a different pressure range (20 kPa to 250 kPa). Verify that the lower maximum pressure of the replacement part meets the system's operational requirements.
